The Shar 6 occurrence is located 12 kilometres north of Klinkit Lake in the Cassiar Mountains of northwestern British Columbia, about 144 kilometres east of the community of Atlin.
The showing is underlain by intercalated west dipping quartzites, phyllites, metapelites, and graphitic shales of the Mississippian Swift River Group. Early Jurassic quartz monzonite of the Nome Lake batholith lies to the east.
A radioactive graphitic shale zone, up to 3.5 metres wide, is enclosed within quartzite. Rock samples assayed up to 0.009 per cent uranium, 0.072 per cent copper, and 0.125 per cent fluorine (Assessment Report 8271).
In 1979, the Shar 5 and 6 claims were staked to cover a stream sediment anomaly from Geological Survey of Canada survey results released in Open File 561. In the same year, CanadianOxy conducted geological and geochemical surveys; a total of 1 heavy mineral, 19 stream sediments, 15 stream water, 23 soil and 9 rock samples were collected.
The showing was re-staked by J.M. Dawson and N.C. Aspinall as joint venture partners in late 2006 and early 2007. Along with a number of other northwest British Columbia mineral prospects, staked as geochemical anomalies, the Klinkit Lake property was incorporated into the Rossing Joint Venture in February, 2007. The Rossing Joint Venture concluded an option agreement with Garnet Point Resources Corp in April, 2007. In 2007, Garnet Point Resources Corp. conducted a soil-silt geochemical survey on the Klinkit Lake property and a total of 112 soil and 59 silt samples were collected.
